Nominations for the 2020 Recorded Music NZ Manager of The Year Award are now open.
The Recorded Music NZ Manager of the Year | Kaiwhakahaere Puoro o te Tau award recognises the tireless commitment of those working behind the scenes to support the success of New Zealand’s musicians.
Now, more than ever, the hard work, unwavering commitment and achievements of artist managers and self-managed artists, through what has become a challenging arts landscape in the wake of Covid-19, are cause for recognition.
Last year the Recorded Music NZ Manager of the Year award was integrated into the VNZMA Artisan Awards held at Massey University’s School of Music and Creative Media Production in Wellington, and was won by Lorraine Barry (for her work with Dave Dobbyn and Tom Scott/Avantdale Bowling Club). The award will be presented again this year at the Artisans and presented alongside the Tui’s for Te Kaiwhakaputa Toa | Best Producer, Te Kaipukaha Toa | Best Engineer, Te Puoro Ataata Toa | Best Music Video, and Te Toi Ataata Pukaemi | Best Album Artwork. Details around the 2020 Artisan Awards will be announced in the coming weeks as the restrictions around public gatherings and Covid 19 are determined.
Nominations for the Recorded Music NZ Manager of the Year award are open from Monday 25 May to 5pm Friday 26 June.
Eligibility period is 1 June 2019 – 31 May 2020, covering a 12 month period for the 2020 Award. Terms and Conditions apply.
Head to www.mmf.co.nz to nominate.
